Excellent perspective...

I will not match wits with anyone who has been in the billiard business for 36 years, but I have been one of the naysayers of the IPT though.

I have only been involved in the industry for the past 10 years, primarily working with the existing organizations in different realms of the sport; might I add with only the best interest of the sport's player in mind.

After reading the article at Leather pockets and calling on my limited knowledge about what has held this sport down, I now must FULLY agree with the potential impact of the IPT and our sport.

Thank you for sharing your insight and best of luck with your new east coast tour. I would definitely sign-up but living on the west coast does not qualify the cost vs. return ratio (i am not wealthy), Especially to my wife.

Wishing you the very best...
 
Texas holdem poker has killed off many of a (gambling) pool player in these parts.Will the IPT revive things? I really hope it does because the pool halls are fairly dead in these parts and rooms are closing up.Real estate has gone up substancially and rents for big buildings (to house enough pool tables) have gone through the roof.

There is a lot of validity to your insightful article. thanks for sharing it.

Go to the link...www.leatherpocket.com Click on photo to the Controversial Corner....Click on 2006 edition.....The IPT & YOU.......:D :D :D :D

At first viewing of y0ur web site, I thought your post was a harmless plug for business for www.leathepocket.com

I promptly went back to AZ forum reading posts and after their comments went back to your site to read what you had to say about many things including the IPT. I have been in the IPT's corner since day 1 although I have been unable to participate in any manner except sweating the matches online.

I read many of your articles and like what you had to say.

What is Criag's last name?
Thanks,
JoeyA (Aguzin)
 
The IPT & YOU

Just a quick note to all who have responded.....Thank you for your comments....I really appreciate them all. I like to write about this game, after all, I have spent the last 43 years of my life in it, with absolutely no regrets. Like I say in one of my articles...."I would rather run 100 balls....than eat." !!!!!
PS Craig's name is the same as mine. He is 32 and has been playing pool for 30 years....That is no "smoke".....There are not many around these parts....that can keep up with him.....Thanks again....as long as the comments are of a responsable nature...I will reply, with the best answer I can give you....Check out the addition to the last article, in the Controversial Corner.....Just my opinion.....:) :) :) :)
To JoeyA....I have the HIGHEST respect for your avatar. I am a D A V from the Viet Nam era....May the Good Lord keep you in the palm of HIS hand

Thanks for your perspective on my avatar. I salute YOU, my friend. You have sacrificed a lot for our country and I hope that you have a great life.
Thank you for your service to our country.

Pretty soon, maybe in the not too distant future, I will have something "special" to show you and others of like mind and spirit and even to others whom are my main target audience for my future propaganda. I've been waiting for over three years but the wait is almost over. OK, I'll shut up or my loose lips will sink the ship. :-) More on that another day. ;-)
